Barcelona will try to strengthen the squad this summer, and while the club will seek to make new signings, the club must also make some sales to balance the books.

Franck Kessie is one of those players that have been linked with an exit from the club.

The 26-year-old midfielder joined Barça as a free agent from AC Milan last summer.

The Ivorian could be sold for at least €20m this summer.

Xavi has admitted he has spoken to the Ivorian about an exit.

“Frank Kessie? I spoke to him, yes. He already knows the situation, it is a private conversation and I will not make it public,” Xavi said in his speech for the opening of his football campus in Barcelona.

A number of players have been linked with a potential summer exit, and Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez, has admitted they need to sell players this summer.

On Ferran Torres, Xavi also stated: “We are going to talk to them. With some we have already spoken. We also have to wait and see how the squad turns out.”
